In this situation, I would recommend you identify the part of the
Debian patch that backs out the tg3 driver, revert it, package it as a
kernel patch package, and use it locally to get a Debian kernel with
tg3 support. This seems a lot of work at first, but is very nice to
have around for the next kernel upgrade.
